Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = 45 - 4(n - 1)

This is the explicit formula for the sequence.

45 is the initial amount, which is why it is by itself.

The change in the sequence is take away 4, so this becomes a negative 4, which is then multiplied by (n - 1), where n is the term in the sequence.
